A video allegedly showing minors assaulting other minors (younger than them) while under the influence of narcotic substances in Ondipulinayakkanur village of Virudhunagar district has surfaced on social media, triggering concern and political reactions.
BJP leader SG Suryah shared the video on his social media handles and condemned the incident. In his post, he expressed shock over the visuals, stating that the footage of school-age children engaging in brutal violence while reportedly intoxicated was disturbing and raised serious questions about the spread of drug abuse among minors.
He alleged that narcotic substances, including ganja, were easily accessible across Tamil Nadu and described the situation as a failure of governance. Referring to a recent controversy involving the growth of a ganja plant within the premises of Stanley Medical College Hospital in Chennai, he argued that such incidents reflected administrative lapses in curbing drug circulation.
Suryah further questioned the functioning of the state police and accused the ruling government of failing to safeguard students and youth from substance abuse. He called upon Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin to take responsibility for the situation and to respond on measures being taken to control narcotics and protect the future of young people in the state.
